    The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame named BYU’s Yoeli Childs as one of 10 candidates for the 2019 Karl Malone Power Forward of the Year Award on Thursday, Feb. 7.

    The award, decided by a national committee of top college basketball personnel, recognizes the top power forwards in Division I men’s college basketball.

    Childs has averaged team highs of 21.2 points and 9.5 rebounds per game for the Cougars this season. He is currently shooting 52.5 percent from the field and 72 percent from the free-throw line. Childs is in the top 30 in the nation in scoring, rebounding and double-doubles and has been named the West Coast Conference Player of the Week twice this season.
